The place could use a new toaster the one there doesn't work to good.The second bathroom shower the water only got warm unlike the main one was great.

Response from VrboOwner on 15 Oct 2026
Michael, instead of informing me about the toaster that "doesn't work 'to' good", you decided to tough it out and then rate our property a 4 rather than a 5. Thanks for that; the toaster has been replaced but the 4 star will remain forever. Had you informed me about the lack of toaster efficiency, it could have been replaced the same day. As to the 2nd bath shower water that didn't get hot ("unlike the main one was great"), I could find nothing amiss. Both bathrooms are served by the same hot water tank, so it's a mystery to me. Thank you.
Wonderful from the moment you walked through the door!

Everything was fantastic. The sunset views are incredible. Having access to a beach and pool within a few feet of each other can’t be beat. The unit was stocked with the essentials to make plenty of meals. Overall a great unit and experience.

Dear Zach and family. Thank you so much for taking the time to review our condo, and share your great experience with future potential renters.
We fully agree with your comments about the views; they are terrific, especially with the angled lanai allowing an almost 180 degree view of the bay and horizon.
Thank you also for the care you took of our place; we appreciate conscientious visitors such as your family.
Please come back for a 2nd visit somtime.

Hello Megan; I wish to thank you for taking the time to review our 5 star property; and also for your kind words of me, personally.
As for Debbie, in our area, she was classified as a Tropical Depression, with occasional wind gusts of about 37 mph, and 3" of rain over a few hours. Debbie became a Cat 1 just before making landfall in the Tallahassee area (350 miles from here) so, no "I Survived Hurricane Debbie" T-shirt for you! LOL
Hope we see you back for another visit!
Great view, great owner, property manager really should’ve been present more and pool really needs to be opened to make this a perfect stay!

Kayelee, thank you for the respect you showed by the condition in which you left our condo. It speaks well of you and your family. You will always be welcomed back!
This may be the only 4 star review we've ever received (we usually rate 5 stars). Your family was the first guest to occupy our unit upon reopening from the devastating effects of Hurricane Ian. Everything had to be rebuilt new, so there were bound to be some "hiccups". Our pool is completely rebuilt and awaiting final Health Department inspection for its opening.
We're happy you enjoyed your stay!
We were familiar with Bayview Tower having stayed at a friends condo in the past. So we were delighted to renew our acquaintance with the property via Henry & Marie's lovely apartment. It was exactly as described in the listing, and was extremely comfortable. Beautifully clean, comfortable bed, fluffy towels. We loved our sunset drink and card game on the screened balcony, watching the pelicans flying by. Spent most days poolside, soaking up the very welcome sunshine!Henry was a very helpful and communicative host e.g. providing suggestions for nearby dining. Also, the condo elevators are being refurbed, and kindly kept us informed on status as and when the owners were updated.Highly recommended - thank you from the Brits!

Thank you Aileen, for taking the time to review our condo with such kind words. It is much appreciated and it helps future potential renters to know what the Bayview Tower is all about. Also, thanks for the great care you took of our place so of course you would be welcomed back anytime! You were great guests!
I come to the Ft Myers/ Sanibel area often to see my parents. This condo was perfect! As opposed to being in a hotel and eating all our meals out, I was able to cook and save quite a bit of money. Even brought my parents out to enjoy the sunset views and my cooking! It was a bonus relaxation for them! The pool was lovely- we had it to ourselves. The beach is long enough to enjoy a walk! The balcony gave us a comfortable place to enjoy being outdoors! The host supplied great information regarding the area around the unit! There was a supply of things like dish soap and dishwasher soap. I loved that there were containers for storing left. If like me, you travel a lot with only carry-on, you should bring your own shampoo and cream rinse! It isn’t at all unusual to have to bring your own to a VRBO but I get caught without mine once in awhile.

This lovely condo has a great view and all the comforts of home to make your vacation enjoyable. We enjoyed sitting on the porch watching the boats and dolphins and watching the sunset. The pool and grounds are well maintained. It is also close to several good restaurants and Sanibel Island.

This was by far one of the most modern and best kept units we have ever stayed in. Hank and his wife were the most gracious and informative owners we have ever come in contact with.
Loved spending time on the balcony looking at the causeway for many boats passing through. Condo was just as described. Thought it was a good value.

Beautiful condo and great location
My husband and I and two of our adult children stayed here for a week in May. The location was perfect--just as the pictures show you are right on the beach. It was an easy drive to Sanibel Island, Captiva and Fort Myers Beach. The condo itself was beautifully decorated and had everything we needed for our stay. I would highly recommend this condo to friends and would certainly rent it again if we return to the Fort Myers area.

I wanted to tell you we had an incredible vacation and absolutely LOVED the condo. My sister and brother-in-law were so impressed, I get to plan next years trip :) The kitchen was everyone's favorite; beautiful, functional, and very well stocked. Thanks to you and your family, Henry for making our family vacation so successful. We hope to be staying again!!

This condo was located at the base of the Sanibel bridge which made it super convenient when you wanted to go to multiple beaches, like Fort Meyers Beach, Lover's Key, Captiva, etc. It also had a small private beach and pool for when you didn't want to venture far. Henry was very quick to respond when I had questions. I would highly recommend renting from him again.

About the host
Hosted by Henry Grech
We are mid-westerners who are enjoying our retirement lifestyle. We live minutes away from the Resort and frequently spend time at the condo. We do some travel, recently retired our motorcycle rides, enjoy drives in our vintage Corvette, golf, quiet walks, love the arts (dinner theatres, etc) cook , read, and enjoy family and friends. Our condo is one of our most favorite places for a change of pace! The beach, the tiki hut next door, the heated pool and hot-tub; the piece and quiet. For livelier times Sanibel is just over the causeway, Fort Myers Beach is a 10 minute drive, and Fort Myers proper, about 25 minutes drive, makes for a lovely downtown shopping, and quaint cultural excursion!
Why they chose this property
We fell in love with the area in the early 90's while visiting a friend's home. Upon discovering the Sanibel Harbour Resort, I knew that I had to someday own there. My first impression of the Resort was the beautiful 1/4 mile, winding, tree-lined, private road leading into the Resort. Upon seeing the openess of the condo units for the first time with their view of the bay, preserve islands, and sunset orientation we knew we had found our little spot of heaven on earth!
What makes this property unique
Close to whatever you may want; downtown Fort Myers (unique, historic area & Thomas Edison & Henry Ford estates (20 min), Fort Myers Beach (15 min), Sanibel Island (100 yards to the causeway), restaurants on site & close by, shopping, golfing, Bayview Tower's privatebeach (or others within minutes), fishing, boating (Resort offers a 95' yacht - dinner and sunset cruises, etc are available).
